Also an expert in alcohol policy, for 4.5 years she served as research and policy director for Marin Institute (now Alcohol Justice), an alcohol industry watchdog group based in Northern California.

New York University Professor Marion Nestle (who calls the book “brilliant”) has made it required reading for her nutrition students.
